No doubt @Chris at Tech Besides, I can only watch my own giant green & brown bass catch videos so many times. A-Jay

I agree that the 6th Sense baits have very decent hardware, some of the best in fact. But at this point is may be more about 'consistency' through my boxes. I know & have confidence in what I've been using. Meaning, I have a very good idea what it takes to sink the steel and keep it there. Doesn't guarantee anything and doesn't mean I don't lose a few. But I'm good with what's been working so unless something changes, I plan on keeping that rolling. A-Jay

I use a net, a boga grip, (any decent fish gripper will work) and a pair of forceps/long nose pliers. Simple & Safe A-Jay

I change EVERY treble hook & split ring from stock. As well as on the water when one get's beat up and needs to be replaced I wish I could tell you that there is some 'secret' to doing this. But honestly, there is not. See for yourself A-Jay

The tubes linked below have been very good for me for a long time. Both the 3.5 & the 4 inch - http://www.providertackle.com/store/index.php?route=product/category&path=66_70 http://www.providertackle.com/store/index.php?route=product/category&path=66_69 A-Jay

I've been saving this one for Lake Springfield but it doesn't look like I'll ever get there . . . . . . A-Jay

That mess is going to pass well south of me - which never happens. I'll take it though. A-Jay

Been using the Owner Rings successfully for a while. In various sizes from #2 up to & including #5. Switched out trebles from size 6 to 2/0 with these rings. Never once has one distorted like that. No clue what your ring changing 'process' is, but I'd recommend that you use 'less' of it. A-Jay

Great Bass & Awesome Smile ~ ! Congrats A-Jay

Seems they have taken quite a liking to the Hallmark Channel. Just a couple of big old softie's I guess . . . . A-Jay

We'll be bringing the dogs in at night ~ A-Jay

In my case, I wanted the dealer to install as much of it as they could. That way they would be familiar with (and perhaps more responsible for) what happens further down the road. Also, they let me sit in and watch much of the install. I learned a ton. A-Jay

Agreed. But I'm an old and mostly weak man so . . . . A-Jay

Hello and Welcome to Bass Resource ~ A-Jay

When it comes to truck and trailer wheel lug nut removal, and even prop nut when it initially comes from the factory, whether removing them at home or on the road, a breaker bar can be a life saver. Mechanical advantage rules. And a quality Torque wrench will take all the guess work out of as well. A-Jay

You just need to know where to look ~ https://www.amazon.com/Seaguar-1000-Yards-Fluorocarbon-Fishing-15-Pound/dp/B0094FLO1G/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=tatsu+15&qid=1611931920&sr=8-2 You're welcome. A-Jay

Behavior is the mirror in which everyone shows their image. A-Jay

Thank you and I hope Abby can be better soon. At this point, and seeing how we funded so much of it, we expect to be getting courtesy copies of the college graduation certificates of the the local Vet's kids. A-Jay

Been a Spike-It marker user & abuser for a while now. Prefer to do it at least the night before but it will work OK 'on the water' as well. This one starts out as a pearl white bait . . . A-Jay

The Cone of Shame ~ Tucker's getting one this morning too. He's got a 'bare skin' spot on a front paw that he just will not stop licking. He's an 'outside' dog and needs the fur #frostbite I'll post a pic after it's 'installed'. The cone is HUGE and He will not be happy either. A-Jay

I prefer to buy bulk spools myself. Don't know enough about how or where you fish to really help. I can tell you what I use but it may not apply to you. I'd go with 30 lb. I will also add that unless you have 'several' rigs, never use backing and change the braid well in advance of it actually 'needing' to be replaced, having 3000 yards of any quality braid might be a two life time supply and qualify you as the regional distribution center.
